Examples
The following examples describe how to use the Else-If statement in PowerShell: Example 1: In this example, we check a number is positive, negative, or zero.
PS C:\> $a=0
PS C:\> if ($a -gt 0)
>> {
>> echo "Number is positive"
>> } elseif($a -lt 0)
>> {
>> echo "Number is negative"
>> } else
>> {
>> echo " Number is zero"
>> }
Output: Number is zero Example 2: In this example, we find the grade of the student according to its percentage.
PS C:\> $math=80
PS C:\> $science=82
PS C:\> $english=75
PS C:\> $computer=90
PS C:\> $hindi=86
PS C:\> $total=$math+$science+$english+$computer+$hindi
PS C:\> $a=$total/500
PS C:\> $percentage=$a*100
PS C:\> if(($percentage -gt 90) -and ($percentage -le 100))
>> {
>> echo "Grade A"
>> } elseif(($percentage -gt 80) -and ($percentage -le 90))
>> {
>> echo "Grade B"
>> }elseif(($percentage -gt 70) -and ($percentage -le 80))
>> {
>> echo "Grade C"
>> }elseif(($percentage -gt 60) -and ($percentage -le 70))
>> {
>> echo "Grade D"
>> }elseif(($percentage -gt 50) -and ($percentage -le 60))
>> {
>> echo "Grade E"
>> }else{ echo "Fail"}
Output: Grade B Example 3: In this example, we check the greatest number among the three variables.
PS C:\> $a=10
PS C:\> $b=20
PS C:\> $c=30
PS C:\> if(($a -gt $b) -and ($a -gt $c))
>> { echo "The value of Variable 'a' is greater than the value of variable 'b' and 'c'."
>> }elseif(($b -gt $a) -and ($b -gt $c))
>> { echo "The value of Variable 'b' is greater than the value of variable 'a' and 'c'."
>> }elseif(($c -gt $b) -and ($c -gt $a))
>> { echo "The value of Variable 'c' is greater than the value of variable 'a' and 'b'."
>> }else
>> { echo " The value of all the three variables 'a', 'b', and 'c' are equal."
>> }
Output: The value of Variable 'c' is greater than the value of variable 'a' and 'b'.
